Combine sherry, soy sauce, and oil in a dish or zip-top bag to make marinade. Add roast and garlic slices, coating well. Marinate in refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Remove roast from marinade, pat dry, and rub with dry mustard and thyme.
Place roast on a rack in a roasting pan and cook until internal temperature reaches desired doneness (about 1 hr to 1 hr 15 mins for medium-rare at 135°F).
Transfer roast to a cutting board, tent with foil, and rest for 15 minutes before slicing.
For gravy, heat beef broth in a saucepan. Stir in Dijon mustard, thyme, salt, and pepper.
Whisk cornstarch with cold water to make a slurry. Stir into simmering broth until thickened.
Slice roast against the grain and serve with gravy.
Notes
Swap dry sherry with red wine for deeper flavor.
Use rosemary instead of thyme for variation.
Mix Dijon mustard with dry mustard for a stronger crust.
Add red pepper flakes to marinade for a spicy kick.
